Ok when it comes to dragons I am a bit biased! I absolutely LOVE them to death. This is Kia and I adopted her from Downloadable Dragons (on links page) and I love her so much I had her tattooed on my lower back!
Dragons have long been feared and worshipped, they embody the four elements and are a symbol of power and protection.
Air ~ Large beating wings
Earth ~ Serpent like body
Fire ~ Fire-breathing lungs
Water ~ Ability to swim and breathe underwater.
In many ancient mythologies dragons represented the underworld, the subconscious and the astral realm. It's ability to burrow deep and fly high reminds us that sometimes positive growth often needs a trip into darker realms as a part of the cycle of renewal.
Wise guardian, nightmare monster and force of nature the Dragon is the oldest and largest of all beasts. It is the King of the Western earth and Emperor of the Eastern sky.
On old maps "Here Be Dragons" was used to mark unexplored regions on the rim of the world. The beast can be seen nightly as the constellation "Draco" which winds across the skies of the Northern hemisphere |
